Problems solved by technology

The problem with this method of manufacture of the bamboo boards is that it is time consuming; the steps of cutting the bamboo strips and then weaving the bamboo strips into the form of a mat take a significant amount of time.
And not only are these processes time consuming, but they can lead to significant defects in the final board product.
For example, internal gaps created by the layering of several of the mats on top of another can result in the production of h

Embodiment Construction

[0007] All parts, percentages, and ratios used herein are expressed by weight unless otherwise specified. All documents cited herein are incorporated by reference.

[0008] As used herein, “lignocellulosic material” is intended to mean a cellular structure, having cell walls composed of cellulose and hemicellulose fibers bonded together by lignin polymer. Wood is a species of lignocellulosic material.

[0009] By “wood composite material” or “wood composite component” it is meant a composite r particle board, chipboard, medium-density fiberboard, plywood, and boards that are a composite of strands and ply veneers. As used herein, “flakes”, “strands”, and “wafers” are considered equivalent to one another and are used interchangeably. A non-exclusive description of wood composite materials may be found in the Supplement Volume to the Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, pp 765-810, 6th Edition, which is hereby incorporated by reference. The following describes preferred embodi...

Abstract

Disclosed is a wood panel comprising: a composite wood component having upper and lower surface layers and a core layer; and one or more bamboo layers, the one or more bamboo layers having a thickness of about about 0.0625 inches to about 0.5, attached to the upper surface layer of the wood composite.

Description

TITLE OF THE INVENTION [0001] Panel Containing Bamboo BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Bamboo is a lignocellulosic material widely used throughout Asia as a structural material because of its high strength, durability and excellent dimensional stability. Given its widespread use and excellent performance, there is an existing desire to make structural panels out of bamboo. [0003] Presently, such bamboo structural panels are made by hand-cutting bamboo strips from the outer part or surface of a bamboo culm, and then weaving (again typically by hand) into mats. These hand-cut, hand-woven bamboo mats are then stacked together along with several other similar mats and the mats then pressed together under high temperature. [0004] The problem with this method of manufacture of the bamboo boards is that it is time consuming; the steps of cutting the bamboo strips and then weaving the bamboo strips into the form of a mat take a significant amount of time. And not only are these processes ...
